Music, Poetry for Memorial Day

A presentation of music and poetry will be offered for Memorial Day at the Hancock Town Library on Thursday at 7 p.m.

Poet Rodger Martin will read from his book “The Battlefield Guide” and other works. He will be joined by classical guitarist Ted Mann as they combine the spoken word with music in memory of the soldiers, sailors and airmen who have died in the service of their countries.

Martin teaches journalism at Keene State College and is a co-editor of Hobblebush Books’ Granite State Poetry Series. Mann is an award-winning musician and composer who teaches music and composition at Keene State College.

The program is free and open to all. For more information, call the library at 525-4411.
